i've spoken to people close to lance armstrong. they said that's the primary reason for coming forward, is that he wants to be a competitive triathlete. all of those events are controlled by usada. yet, usada has said, if you want to come back in, you need to actually admit that that our 15 years of research into your past, you need to admit that the people who testified under oath that you bullied them, you need to say that's true. he actually, instead of that, he drew a line last night with oprah winfrey and said, no, it's not true. i did not bully people into doing anything they didn't want to do. i may have bullied people who accused me of things, which doesn't make him very sympathetic, but i didn't do anything in terms of facilitating doping in cycling. i think that's what's going to trip him up going forward. >> all right. stick around. we're going to come back a little later in the program and talk to you about the manti te'o hoax. thanks. >>> other news overseas in north africa. we're learning more details about the hostag

i never wore that bracelet because of lance armstrong. it was a very, very personal thing, and i always wore it as a remembrance of what danny was going through every day in his life that he could never escape cancer, and i always wanted to have it on my wrist so i would always remember his struggle. >> wow. thanks for sharing, but it just brings home that what lance armstrong did and what he represented is very personal for millions and millions of people. i remember when after my diagnosis they sent me a bracelet and materials from him, and it just is incredibly disillusioning, as it is with other athletes who have been proved to be cheaters. >> i mean, when you think about all of this was built on lies, and i -- that is what is very, very hard to get your head around. andrea. >> and as pete williams points out, there could be legal ramifications ahead of him. >> absolutely. >> thank you, pete. ann, thank you so much. >>> still ahead here a major roadblock clears for chuck hagel. >>> and our women making history continues in the senate
